EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the exterior of the New Asylum for Fatherless Children, located at Couisdon in Surrey, near Croydon, in the year 1858. The Asylum, which was also known as Reedham Asylum, was a charitable institution established to provide a home for orphaned and fatherless children during the 1850s, a period marked by widespread poverty and social hardship in Victorian England. The photograph showcases the imposing yet compassionate architecture of the Asylum, with its grand arches, intricate stonework, and expansive grounds. The building's design reflects the institutional nature of the home, which aimed to provide a structured and nurturing environment for its young residents. The Asylum's grounds, which can be seen in the background of the image, were meticulously maintained and offered the children ample space to play and explore. The institution also provided education and vocational training to help the children develop essential skills and prepare them for independent living. The New Asylum for Fatherless Children was a testament to the charitable spirit of the Victorian era, which sought to address the plight of orphaned and fatherless children by providing them with a safe and supportive environment. This image offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion and care for the most vulnerable members of society.
